New 'Star Wars' in 3-D Coming to Theaters

This is on IMDB.com...

Quote:
Lucasfilm plans to introduce its upcoming animated TV series, Star Wars: The Clone Wars with a 90-minute 3-D theatrical version on August 15, the company said Monday. Somewhat surprisingly, the film will be released by Warner Bros. rather than 20th Century Fox, which released all of the previous Star Wars features. The TV series, however, will air on the Cartoon Network, a corporate sibling of Warner Bros. In a statement, Warner distribution chief Dan Fellman said, "This is a breakthrough project, returning Star Wars to the big screen in a completely new way while beginning an exciting new chapter in George Lucas's legendary saga. We immediately felt that it would be a fantastic theatrical event and are thrilled to be bringing it to moviegoers."

Interesting although it will probably only be on IMAX screens. Warner Bros releasing it is also interesting because 20th Century Fox has released everything Star Wars since the first movie in 1977.

EDIT: Looks like Samuel L Jackson and Hayden Christensen want to lend their voices in the animated series.
